After an unfortunate incident aboard an airline, I was referred to Travis by a colleague and he was terrific. He understood my desire to pursue my case in a fair and low key way. He was up front with realistic expectations and he communicated, along with his staff, throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Travis when you are searching for someone with an even temperament and a common sense approach. - Angie Oven
